As the ringmaster bends over her, he sees around her neck an amber charm, just like the one he gave his own child before she was swept away in a torrent 16 years earlier. This tale is narrated by Petter, a precocious child and a fantasist, and perhaps Jostein Gaarder's most intriguing creation since Sophie. Petter makes his living selling stories and ideas to authors suffering from writer's block. It's a lucrative trade, but as he sits like a spider in the center of his web, Petter finds himself in a trap of his own making. 546 $a Translated from the Norwegian. 700 1 $a Anderson, James. 941 $a 1 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20150728010803.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0586AFB034EE11E5BB0C1891DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
